Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Yes! I'd even go for just a tulle skirt picking up either the blue or the pink to contrast the construction of the waistcoat with the softness of the tulle. Either way I really want this waistcoat... 020
Reposted by JenFran Moldaschl @franmoldaschl.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I last read this book when it came out and I still think about it periodically.

Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Absolutely fantastic book, so much so that we're using it as a featured book for our education studies students at the Open University. 120
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 30/09/2026That's how it works. I once got out of a jacuzzi at a spa day and had to beg some paper and a pen from the receptionist whilst wrapped in a towel because that was the moment my brain decided to start giving me all the good stuff. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I generally agree but also am disappointed by Jonathan Anderson at Dior so far, so I guess I am the target audience for those articles. 000
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Amazing poem, thanks so much for sharing! I'm doing a lot of work with students on linguistic rights and education policy in the UK nations at the moment so this one really speaks to me. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I absolutely love the colour story in this. It could so easily look too literal or too craftsy, but the soft blues and pinks turn it into a dreamy joy. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Wow I love this and want it so much. I work from home so would get loads of use out of it too, that's a reasonable justification, right? 010

Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Beautiful! We were very lucky and saw both the eclipse and masses of shooting stars from the meteor shower, that jacket really captures some of the magic! 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Had an amazing time watching the eclipse today from Gwennap Head, rather better than in 1999! Context photos by me, close ups of the eclipse by @piranlbb.bsky.social 020
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Though there was also the time a consultant told me I should take ill-health retirement at the age of 27 and 'live on love'. Never been sure whether it meant I should a) get married b) become a sex worker c) find a way to miraculously metabolise love from the atmosphere in lieu of buying food 050
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 06/08/2026When I was severely ill as a child because my appendix had burst, a doctor told my mother that there was absolutely nothing wrong with me, and that 'this sort of behaviour is very common in middle-class girls of a certain disposition'. 3181
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I'm afraid I loved the book just too much to watch the film, I knew from experience it would change how I read the book forever. Only book I've ever taken that stand on because I'm generally interested in adaptations, but it is one of very few perfect books for me so I don't want to take the risk! 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 18/07/2026My god, the shaping, the colour, the weight of the fabric. Just perfection. 020

Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is. 102125707356
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 02/07/2026And would be so much better without all the pseudo-philisophical digressions into the 'laws of history'. The story is great, there are some moments of genuinely brilliant snark, but good lord that book needed an editor. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Congratulations, and so well deserved. These are books I reread so often, it's wonderful to know so many more people will get the joy, and the heartache (inevitable when they truly mean so much), of reading them. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Okay that one I might have to try to recreate. Just stunning! 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 15/06/2026The book is excellent. I'd highly recommend getting a hard copy of the illustrated version though, as they also released a non-illustrated version and it's not nearly as good. 030
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Spectacular! Cocktail length definitely though, it really works with the lightness of the design. 010
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Same, though I am 99% Celtic, 1% Viking, and would therefore like to be excused from this weather. Whilst I do love that outfit, I would have to wear it whilst lounging under a big umbrella! 020

Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Yup, my Cornish husband and his best mate who comes from Plymouth had never heard of this debate until they moved to Bournemouth for university. 011
Jen @jentrem.bsky.social · 26/01/2026I love the bodice, but the skirt feels too heavy for it. I like the colour combo but the velvet is giving me vibes of an over-protective parent saying 'you can't go out like that!' and wrapping them in a curtain 😆 020
